That's true. But the Nexus 7 is the best Android device I've ever owned. Ran it stock unrooted for a few days, and then unlocked, rooted and flashed Sinless ROM (after making a nandroid backup, of course.)

I just received my nexus 7 and there's already an update available. I plan on rooting and flashing a custom rom. Should I update or not? I know sometimes an update can cause problems when it comes to rooting and whatnot so I thought I'd ask first.. thanks for any feedback!
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Yes update it. I updated to 4.1.1 first then unlocked, then rooted with permanent cwm then flashed touch cwm from rom manager.
Use nexus toolkit though so you can restore stock recovery to flash Amy new updates and root again easily.
Also no harm updating to 4.1.1 and then rooting we have methods set up for that right now.

You can root it before or after update, you're just updating to 4.1.1, or you can install a ROM that is already there, if you're rooting either way, just go for it right away

Thanks a lot for your quick responses! Lovin it so far no issues like I've heard about.

This is a nexus device. Unlike other devices you never need to fear an update may break your ability to root.

I updated my nexus 4 to 4.2.2 and have terrible battery results. I want to root and flash cm 10.1 does anyone now if any toolkits have updated to root 4.2.2?
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
All the toolkits should still work.
But do yourself a favor and learn to use fastboot and adb. Super easy to use, and its all you need on a nexus
Fastboot oem unlock
Fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilegoeshere.img
Fastboot reboot-recovery
Adb sideload romfilenamegoeshere.zip
Adb sideload gappsfile.zip

Yeah I'm new to this whole thing haha. Do you know any good videos that do adb to learn from?

4.2.2 has a tremendous batterylife improvement over 4.2.1. I would recommend a data/factory reset or even better flash the whole 4.2.2 factory image for optimal result.
I want to root my Nexus 4 and install newest CM. One problem is, that there is Android 4.4 update comming soon. So if I root my Nexus and install CM, can I get my phone back to stock and update Android to 4.4?
Yes. You can either flash the 4.4 images, or simply install a 4.4 based custom ROM (the more practical solution my opinion) since you will already have installed a custom recovery.

If I have CM installed, can I somehow get everything to stock. Like my Nexus 4 just came out of box?

Id recommend never using a toolkit, for so many reasons I've seen; people don't understand what's going on and can't fix errors, they come asking about things that should be basic knowledge, they don't learn anything in the process, and so on - its like giving kids a calculator before they can add.
Anyway rant over, flash this in recovery; http://download.chainfire.eu/365/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.69.zip, and if you need a recovery; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2266654
